SERVER MANAGEMENT

Remote server management.

Monitor, maintain and troubleshoot servers around the clock without leaving your desk. GoDesk gives you secure unattended access to every server you manage — no exposed RDP ports.

OPS PAIN

What goes wrong without remote ops.

Four reasons SREs and sysadmins burn weekends.

Physical access required

Driving to a data center for routine maintenance wastes hours and delays fixes that could be done remotely.

Downtime during off-hours

Server issues at 2 AM or on weekends sit unresolved until someone can physically reach the machine. Every hour costs money.

Mixed-OS server fleets

Windows, Linux and macOS server fleets mean juggling different tools — adds complexity, cost and context-switching.

Security risks of open ports

Exposing RDP or VNC to the internet invites brute-force and exploits. A well-known risk too many teams still accept.

HOW IT WORKS

Built for production server management.

Six things GoDesk gives a server admin that ad-hoc tools don't.

Unattended 24/7 access

Connect to any server at any time without on-site personnel. Configure once, reach forever.

Remote reboot with auto-reconnect

Restart a server remotely and reconnect automatically when it comes back online. Maintenance reboots without losing your session.

Cross-platform from one tool

Manage Windows, Linux and macOS servers from a single client app. No more juggling RDP, SSH and VNC.

Permanent passwords for trusted hosts

Set permanent access on machines you control with configurable access policies. No flapping one-time codes for production hosts.

Address book for the whole fleet

Keep every server in one searchable directory with tags, groups and notes. Find any host in seconds, even at hundreds of nodes.

AES-256-GCM, no exposed ports

Every connection is encrypted end-to-end. No RDP/SSH/VNC port exposed to the public internet — outbound HTTPS only.

THE KIT

Features for production servers.

Everything a sysadmin actually uses, nothing a sales-led product would upsell on top.

01 / ALWAYS ON

Unattended access

Configure servers for always-on remote access. Connect at any hour without requiring someone to accept the session.

02 / REBOOT

Remote reboot

Restart a server remotely and automatically reconnect once it's back. Useful for updates and recovering from hangs.

03 / DIRECTORY

Address book

All your servers in one directory with tags, groups and notes. Find any machine fast, even across hundreds of hosts.

04 / PLATFORMS

Cross-platform

Connect to Windows, macOS, and Debian/Ubuntu/Mint hosts from one client. No protocol-switching mid-shift. Other distros are reachable if they run the upstream RustDesk binary you build yourself (AGPL source on GitHub).

05 / ENCRYPTION

AES-256-GCM end-to-end

All session traffic is end-to-end encrypted with AES-256-GCM and X25519 key exchange. No need to expose RDP, SSH or VNC ports to the public internet.

06 / AUDIT

Connection history

Track every administrative session with timestamps, durations and operator details. Auditable, exportable.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Can I manage headless Linux servers with GoDesk?
Yes. GoDesk supports headless Linux servers — access the graphical desktop or use it alongside SSH for hybrid management workflows.
What happens if a server reboots during a session?
GoDesk detects the reboot and reconnects once the server is back online. You don't need to manually re-establish the session.
How many servers can I manage with one account?
There's no hard limit on machines in your address book. Commercial plans support unlimited devices with concurrent connection capabilities.
Is GoDesk suitable for production environments?
Yes. AES-256-GCM end-to-end, permanent passwords with configurable access policies, full connection audit logs. Built with production workloads in mind.
